Watch: little girl blames bad behaviour on a ghost, then almost out-argues her mum

Next time you’re in trouble, just follow this little girl’s lead – you’ll be fine.

After apparently drawing on the family fish tank with a permanent Sharpie pen, she blames the crime on an obvious culprit – a ghost.

She lists out a whole conversation she had with the fictional being, before eventually caving in and admitting to her mother that she is lying.

By the end of the video she seems to have gained the upper hand however, as her mum is left lost for words after the imaginative little girl somehow flips the accusations back on her, asking her: ‘Are you making this up?’

The girl proves that any argument can be won with a strong delivery (Picture: Youtube)
